ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for reproducing low frequency sound in response to an applied audio signal having a rotary acoustic radiator comprised of an enclosure having a cylindrical sidewall and end walls adjoining the sidewall and forming a cylindrical chamber. A rotor assembly including a hub and movable vanes secured to the hub is rotatably mounted in the chamber for rotation on a longitudinal axis. Stationary vanes are mounted in the chamber and extend between the cylindrical sidewall and the hub and extend between the end walls. The enclosure has ports therein opening into the chamber and disposed adjacent the stationary vanes on opposite sides of said stationary vanes. The movable vanes are disposed on opposite sides of the stationary vanes and extend between the cylindrical sidewall and the hub and between the end walls. A torque motor is provided for applying rotational reciprocating movement to the rotor assembly whereby upon rotation in one direction air is forced out through the ports on one side of the stationary vanes and upon rotation of the rotor assembly in an opposite direction air is forced through the ports on the other side of the stationary vanes. A position sensor is provided for sensing the rotational position of the rotor assembly. A microcomputer is provided for controlling the reciprocating movement of the torque motor in response to the applied audio signal.
